Principal Mele Vaihola said today he boarding house had remained closed since late last month to prevent the risk of typhoid being contracted by any of its students.
She said school continued as usual for their 357 students but the 70 percent who boarded had been let off due to the typhoid case.
“We decided it's best to take this precautionary measure to be on the safe side because we have so many students boarding and food is always being brought from outside by their families to eat,” she said.
